Online Marketing Strategy | Website Promotion Strategy

In a nutshell, online marketing follows a simple model:

                  website + traffic + conversion = sale

Unfortunately, most small businesses get hung up on the website, endlessly tweaking the design, rather than focusing their efforts on generating traffic and improving conversion. This is why having an online marketing strategy, before spending your marketing budget, helps you put things in perspective and provides you with the best Return on Investment.

5. List and evaluate your potential traffic generation strategies e.g SEO, PPC, Article Marketing, Blogging, Video Marketing, Social Media, offline marketing
6.
